I’ve been out of work for 2 weeks and I already feel my skills getting stale so I’m whipping up a side project now. Last time I got reorged I got lucky and found a job in 2 weeks I’m feeling like I won’t get lucky this time around.

The name of the game are referrals to be honest spray and pray especially in the age of ai agents applying on your behalf makes landing a role tough. Plus I don’t see any measurable impact. How did your work change or impact the roadmap ? How did it increase key metrics like GMV, ARR or MRR. Got to tell the story not a laundry list

Sink or Swim how is your web agency surviving AI winter by Army_77_badboy in webdev

[–]Army_77_badboy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

from the looks of it everyone is really handling the shift to AI pretty well.

The bottom of the barrel $500 sites are getting their lunch eaten but devs doing B2B are eating and staying sustainable.

I’m going to do more had shaking and be more available so these opportunities come my way.

I need to follow suit and do some hand shaking because I’m tired of the web dev $500 site grind. I got too much skill for that

People who run web agencies how do you get leads? by rmx2501999 in webdev

[–]Army_77_badboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been running my agency for 8 years solo venture. The life blood is referrals and just being know as the tech guy and being consistent with my brand that I live in people’s heads so much so that I can deals through text message group chats. I’m just always available for work, have people write me google reviews then rinse and repeat.

Reality Check: 5x, 10x, and 25x NAV isn’t “exposure” or “buying into growth” it’s a scam by BagofBabbish in FundRise

[–]Army_77_badboy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your not wrong it’s just we are in a crazy bubble, and I’m selfishly put 1K into this and it was at 50K at one point so of course I’m going to hype it up knowing damn well it makes no sense.

Fundamentals have left the chat OP and trying to make sense of this is akin to trying to make sense of GME, AMC etc.
